A protracted war of 30 years was created. Then, if the general election was held, the JVP would have contested it. They would have won several seats in Parliament. As there would have been a representation of the progressive people in Parliament, JR could not have created the 88 and 89 massacres.<br \/>\nRanil Wickramasinghe, JR\u2019s son-in-law, has decided to return on that journey. From today (the 14th), there are only 22 days more. There is also a court hearing on the 23rd. Only a few days are left before the election date. Ranil Wickramasinghe is still attempting to postpone it.<br \/>\nGovernment Printing Department never gets money before they complete a job. After doing the work, they are credited by the government. Invitations were sent to celebrate Independence Day. We would like to know from the lady, was she paid before the work was done? They sent a letter asking for money only for this job. Why is that? She is close to sixty. She is looking to get her term extended or go home at 60 and go to an embassy.<br \/>\nThe president of the country is a saboteur. The press is being told not to print ballot papers. The Secretary of the Treasury is told not to give the money. Whose money is this? This is the wealth of our people. Those who do not have the power of the people cannot control the money of the people. They are thieves, and they are corrupt. So what do they have? They have power that does not belong to them.<br \/>\nCome to the street to chase away the thief. We will plan and tell you all to get ready to take to the streets. Get ready for that day. We will take this election by hook or by crook.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-8115\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jvpsrilanka.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/NPP-Monaragala-2023.02.15-3.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"475\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jvpsrilanka.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/NPP-Monaragala-2023.02.15-3.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.jvpsrilanka.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/NPP-Monaragala-2023.02.15-3-300x178.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.jvpsrilanka.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/NPP-Monaragala-2023.02.15-3-600x356.webp 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-8114\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jvpsrilanka.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/NPP-Monaragala-2023.02.15-2.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"502\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jvpsrilanka.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/NPP-Monaragala-2023.02.15-2.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.jvpsrilanka.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/NPP-Monaragala-2023.02.15-2-300x188.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.jvpsrilanka.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/NPP-Monaragala-2023.02.15-2-600x377.webp 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-8117\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jvpsrilanka.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/NPP-Monaragala-2023.02.15-4.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jvpsrilanka.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/NPP-Monaragala-2023.02.15-4.webp 800w, https:\/\/www.jvpsrilanka.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/NPP-Monaragala-2023.02.15-4-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.jvpsrilanka.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/NPP-Monaragala-2023.02.15-4-600x400.webp 600w, https:\/\/www.jvpsrilanka.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/NPP-Monaragala-2023.02.15-4-150x100.webp 150w, https:\/\/www.jvpsrilanka.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/NPP-Monaragala-2023.02.15-4-272x182.webp 272w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cWe will take this vote by hook or crook,\u201d the leader of the JVP and NPP, Comrade Anura Dissanayaka said yesterday (15th ) at Monaragala.
